Thank you very much, Minister.
Thank you, Ms. Saks.
This takes us to the end of our first hour with the minister, on the estimates.
We now go into our second hour, which is a discussion on COVAX, as agreed by the committee on April 15.
As we transition, some of our witnesses from Global Affairs will leave us. We would like to thank them on our collective behalf.
Thank you very much for your testimonies this afternoon.
At this point, Leslie MacLean and Peter MacDougall are staying with us, and we would also like to welcome Joshua Tabah, director general of health and nutrition, Global Affairs Canada, for the second hour.
Madam Minister, I will give you the floor again. You have five to seven minutes to make your opening remarks on the COVAX facility.
